Bioware making Victus: "Well surely people won't thirst over the sad middle-aged alien."

Bioware: "By the Goddess, this can't be happening."

bioware knew what they were doing when they made a sad dilf turian who doesnt play by the rules of the hierarchy and cares about the people he commands

[s0me-writer]

Yes, this.

MASS EFFECT 2: LEGENDARY EDITION | (59/?) ↳ Getting too drunk in the Black Star Lounge

As a fellow fanfic writer, I just want to warn you that it’s actually illegal to make money off of fanfiction

So are fanart commissions?

Fanart is just as illegal as fanfiction. It’s all either infringement or fair use or in a gray zone.

While I appreciate the anon concern, you could have just messaged.

The copyright holders haven’t sued me yet, and they'd be welcome to should they choose to (press x to doubt). I'm not publishing novels (the writing equivalent of selling stickers or t-shirts). I'm writing micro scenes to make people happy. If you don't like it, don't get one.

I am publically reopening writing commissions again now that my backlog is gone, and I'm running a special on smut (because, why not?):

(+$5 for original characters)

Fandoms include but aren't limited to: Mass Effect, Lucifer, RDR, Star Trek, Star Wars.

All pairings welcome, but if you're following me you know what I'm better known for.

Somewhere on Hackett’s ship is a yeoman whose only job is to track the location of the Normandy and cross-reference it against every task Hackett has spent the last ten years procrastinating on.

What is the one thing you hate most about your fandom?

Hey Anon!

I've been thinking long and hard about this question. How does one criticize their fandom without becoming "problematic" to the more vocal and, dare I say, toxic community members? The answer is, of course, that you absolutely can't.

Somewhere and somehow, crass vindictiveness became normalized. Polite disagreements are impossible. Cliques are weaponized as instruments of harassment against fellow community members for having the audacity to enjoy fictional characters differently than what the so-called majority deems acceptable. Creators (particularly writers) have their works stolen by "big name fans" because they've become enabled by their followers. Rejecting canon and substituting lore for popular ***headcanons runs rampant.

There is a variety of things I despise about my fandom. But, I can summarize it all in one word: Ego. Such a small word, but ego can destroy anything on its path. It kills relationships, talents, and gifts. Ego has an eagerness to possess all things, may it be socially, physically, and mentally. And it has only one purpose. To be superior among other people who surround them. Like a leech, ego sucks the fun out of anything and everything.

Thanks so much for your ask Anon! Sorry, it took so long to get back to you, but I wanted to put some effort into this one!

💙 Take care of yourself! 💙

***For the record, I believe it's acceptable to have HCs. (Ask me about turian grooming! I have lots of HCs for that!) It's not HCs that bother me. It's the community accepting/adopting the HCs of a few as canon, thus provoking fandom wars against people who do not support their beloved theories.***

The Three Laws of Fandom

If you wish to take part in any fandom, you need to accept and respect these three laws.

If you aren’t able to do that, then you need to realise that your actions are making fandom unsafe for creators. That you are stifling creativity.

Like vaccination, fandom only works if everyone respects these rules. Creators need to be free to make their fanart, fanfics and all other content without fear of being harassed or concern-trolled for their creative choices, no matter whether you happen to like that content or not.

The First Law of Fandom

Don’t Like; Don’t Read (DL;DR)

It is up to you what you see online. It is not anyone else’s place to tell you what you should or should not consume in terms of content; it is not up to anyone else to police the internet so that you do not see things you do not like. At the same time, it is not up to YOU to police fandom to protect yourself or anyone else, real or hypothetical.

There are tools out there to help protect you if you have triggers or squicks. Learn to use them, and to take care of your own mental health. If you are consuming fan-made content and you find that you are disliking it - STOP.

The Second Law of Fandom

Your Kink Is Not My Kink (YKINMK)

Simply put, this means that everyone likes different things. It’s not up to you to determine what creators are allowed to create. It’s not up to you to police fandom. 

If you don’t like something, you can post meta about it or create contrarian content yourself, seek to convert other fans to your way of thinking.  

But you have no right to say to any creator “I do not like this, therefore you should not create it. Nobody should like this. It should not exist.”

It’s not up to you to decide what other people are allowed to like or not like, to create or not to create. That’s censorship. Don’t do it.

The Third Law of Fandom

Ship And Let Ship (SALS)

Much (though not all) fandom is about shipping. There are as many possible ships as there are fans, maybe more. You may have an OTP (One True Pairing), you may have a NOTP, that pairing that makes you want to barf at the very thought of its existence.

It’s not up to you to police ships or to determine what other people are allowed to ship. Just because you find that one particular ship problematic or disgusting, does not mean that other people are not allowed to explore its possibilities in their fanworks.

You are free to create contrarian content, to write meta about why a particular ship is repulsive, to discuss it endlessly on your private blog with like-minded persons.

It is not appropriate to harass creators about their ships, it is not appropriate to demand they do not create any more fanworks about those ships, or that they create fanwork only in a manner that you deem appropriate.

These three laws add up to the following:

You are not paying for fanworks content, and you have no rights to it other than to choose to consume it, or not consume it. If you do choose to consume it, do not then attack the creator if it wasn’t to your taste. That’s the height of bad manners.

Be courteous in fandom. It makes the whole experience better for all of us.
